Bug Description
SRU request:
Please accept jockey in precise-proposed.
[Rationale]
The new code adds support for the lts-saucy backported stack and for the future lts-trusty stack.
[Impact]
Without this work, hybrid graphics can't be enabled if the lts-saucy stack is installed. Installing the nvidia driver on hybrid systems without the nvidia-prime package will result in failure.
[Test Case]
1) Install the update
2) Make sure that Saucy's xserver is installed.
3) Launch Jockey and install the nvidia driver on a hybrid system with Intel/NVIDIA GPUs.
4) Check that the "nvidia-prime" package was installed.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The new code doesn't affect systems with different stacks or non-hybrid systems.
